Not overly glad. But then again, takes out the hugely irritating chore of trying to organise dates around her planned-months-ahead-schedule.

I love it. The freedom, the power of doing it my way. I walk the path of those who carried the load themselves. I will prove that I can be just as good, doing things on my own.
I'm very happy. Natural happiness is a beautiful thing.
We're humans we don't NEED to have a girlfriend or a boyfriend, it's just what we're told by society in everything we do and take part in.
Books, movies, video games, comics, television, and then as kids we're exposed to other people having girlfriends, we're brought to weddings, etc, and it starts to have an effect on the way we think.
I reject that, though. I never look for a girlfriend, because I believe in self-happiness and independence. If down the line it just so happens that I meet someone, great, but it won't be a big deal if I never do.

Very unhappy! I need someone to love...let me rephrase that, I need someone to love who doesn't hate my guts.
While being 21 and never having had a boyfriend does get me down sometimes, I'm happy to wait. Why settle for being with someone you don't really like just so you can say you're in a relationship?
great feeling isn't it?NightmareLuna said:
I'm feelin' about that way too.
on the OP, I've been single all my life and now its driving me nuts!!
lonely...so lonely... xP
I'd say I'm happy being single. Like a lot of people, I won't say it's the best thing Raptor Jesus ever invented since sliced bread and I'm not *exhilerated* about my not having to apply some concessions to my habits for the purposes of romance - but I'm generally content.
Besides, I'm mostly of the mind that I'd rather work on having something to offer to someone else, first. I'm not totally devoid of interests, of course, but I think I'll have reached my highest personal milestone with my thesis.
Past that? Free as a bird, I guess. I'll be a little more open to the idea of looking for that special someone. Right now, it's just not one of my major concerns.

Right now I'm fairly happy, course I miss having something more... stable every now and then. Right now I'm happy though, atleast I can flirt and date with anyone now without having to worry about my girlfriend hunting me down.
Not happy being single. Why not? I'm incredibly self-centred and want to validate my infeasibly high opinion of myself but cannot think of a way to do that that isn't finding a member of the opposite sex willing to let me put my cock in their mouth without financial incentive or threats of violence. Not being cynical, just being honest.

Emo RDJ FTW. I was damn miserable being single. Where I live I only see people I can hold a conversation with once every two weeks. It makes more difference to visit someone I know I'm close with.
I used to obsess about it but now I've pretty much accepted that it's unlikely to happen, at least where I live now... I genuinely suck at talking to girls (but then again I am 18, so who knows). Guess I've just got other stuff to worry about in the meantime before Uni... :L
Well, being single has its pros and cons.
You can focus on your work more, but at the same time, you have no one to focus on, on your spare time.
You will have more money as being in a relationship can be costly, but you'll have no one to share it with.
When you laugh, there's no one to hear. When you cry, there's no one to comfort you. If you want sex, you've only got one option, and that is fapping. (Or rubbing if you are of the opposite sex)
Whichever is more important should decide whether you're happier being single than being in a relationship.Currently I'm single, but that is nothing I can work on; I am charming, handsome and intelligent, but you don't see any line of women queuing after me; nor could I ever make one on my own. The only people I've actually felt connection to have been across the Internet, and that never works out; unless you're that smug couple on the newspaper with the headlines of "LOVE CONQUERS EVERYTHING!" (Personally I just want to beat them in the face)
It would be nice if I could have a significant other to share my awesomeness with, but that is not to be. So, I am left to my own demises, and so far I have improved, improved and improved myself with a lot of challenges, turning me into a greater person; something I could never had achieved, or even noticed the potential, had I been in a relationship.

It's more that I'm reserved to the fact I'd most likely make a terrible boyfriend, so I'm not even bothering.
I'm genuinely happy being single. I don't want a relationship unless it'll be a quality one, and at 17 my work is probably a wiser investment. I'm also aesexual, so physical intimacy isn't something I'm missing.
